    Good location for a visit to DC

    Comfortable, clean and quiet room with plenty of space; large sofa and ample clothes storage. Staff were friendly and helpful. Very useful to have a kitchenette (which we did not know about from the booking information). Good location in a very pleasant, quiet area of Washington, a short walk from Foggy Bottom metro station - and an excellent (and very useful) Whole Goods supermarket.

    You can hear lots of planes but this is not the hotel‘s fault.

    Safe und lovely environment for a family trip, five minute walk from the metro station. Very friendly staff and very clean room. We got a complimentary upgrade which was very helpful as we were travelling with small kids.

    Some rooms are starting to feel a bit tired. Despite this, the prices keep going up compared to other similar hotels. It just doesn't seem worth it anymore despite all the positives. I hope prices return to a more reasonable rate.

    As always, spacious rooms, clean, kitchen, excellent location, the friendliness of the staff

    AC system is a bit old, therefore not friendly to the user, and it is turned on on a select basis according to the weather conditions and the management gives you promptly advise, which is environmentally friendly and ok but if for any case you need to cool a bit, it is not possible. Room with great view to the main street but quite noisy as long as I opened the windows in the morning. Windows lack of maintenance, they cannot be slide easily. Venetian blinds are not so easy to use. In overall the place has good maintenance, just minor details, which won't affect my decision to stay here again.

    Location is excellent, walking distance from Metro Station on a very quiet street. Local and organic supermarkets nearby, plenty of places to eat and drink. Rooms are comfy and ample, amenities are really Good. Great WiFi coverage. Staff is exceptional and really nice and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

    Maybe a lighted and mirrored cabinet and chair in the bathroom. There was plenty of room for one it seemed.

    Location was fine after I found it but it was difficult to locate. If I'm ever back in DC, I will definately make reservations here again. Jack and other staff were most accommodating.

    Perfect location from which to explore DC either by foot or metro which was a few mins walk away. Exceptional customer service. Good size room - comfortable and spotless, with sofa, seating for in-room dining, large desk to work at, TV, alarm clock, nice size bathroom, good shower with large rainshower head, well-stocked kitchenette (large fridge with ice, hob, microwave, coffee machine, toaster, cooking equipment and utensils, plates, bowls, cutlery, mugs and glasses, salt and pepper and additional items on request). Excellent Whole Foods Market 5 mins walk away, so could stock up if we didn't want to eat out. Decent small fitness centre. Nice restaurant - Matera, had a good, buzzy atmosphere and tasty food. Would definitely stay at the River Inn again and would highly recommend it.

    The bathroom was a bit uncomfortable - big, though. The A/C was a bit noisy, like a white noise

    Clean and huge room with a kitchen. Charming and helpful staff. Perfect location - a quiet neighborhood but also really close to a metro, supermarkets, and coffee shops
